Wholehearted: Love, Sex + Intimacy

I’ve been watching Corona’s journey for a while and love what she shares. But one of her posts* on Instagram a little while ago really caught my attention and prompted me to reach out. She spoke about divorce being the catalyst for an extraordinary life.  “Growth happens when we can lean in and embrace the discomfort and the unknown. No transformation occurs in the known.” CORONA BRADY She was wonderful enough to accept my invitation to talk about that - and I’m especially grateful - because I think we’re all experiencing huge and unexpected changes in our lives right now.  Whether it’s divorce, a relationship breakdown, a lost job, business failure or unexpected life shift - I also believe that these things that we often think of as devastating at the time - can really propel our lives to somewhere different and much more amazing than we had planned.  Listen in as I talk with Corona, and she shares her journey through change. Making the decision to divorce What gets you through those early stages  Grieving for the hopes and dreams that we had for the future and how to cope with that How to work through feeling like you’ve lost your identity The importance of having a spiritual practice been while transitioning   I also ask Corona about her Kundalini yoga and the launch of her online school - which is such perfect timing for everyone who can’t get to their regular yoga session right now.    *CORONA’S POST: At 37 I thought my life was over when I chose to make a scary but very brave decision that would change the whole course and direction of my life.  But today at 39 I realise my life is only beginning and I’m excited for this new chapter. Our bravery and courage will always be rewarded for!  It’s been an incredibly tough 2+ years (I’m not going to sugar coat it, I’ve literally walked through the fires of transformation) but I’m now out the other side and I’ve so much to share with you on topics such as conscious relationships, polarity in romantic relationships, when you know it’s time to leave a relationship, divorce/separation, the real inner work that’s required after the collapse of a marriage, grief, losing everything and beginning again, dealing with lies and deceit in relationship, opening yourself up to love again, living as an awakened empowered conscious woman, collapse of and rebuilding your foundations, working through sexual repression plus so much more! Growth happens when we can lean in and embrace the discomfort and the unknown. No transformation occurs in the known.   Corona is a Holistic Life Coach & Mentor for Women, Mind Detox Therapist, Kundalini Level 2 Teacher, and Speaker!

Every now and then some alone time is great but social interactions are a massive part of our lives.  Humans are wired for connection. What happens when we don’t get it?    Well, my loves, that’s what many of us are now discovering.  About 2.6 billion people on the planet are now in lock-down - that’s about one third of the world’s population.   The reality is that for many of us, that means literally being alone, without in person interactions, or physical touch 24 hours a day. With the possibility of lockdown continuing for weeks still to come, I want to share some advice for surviving on your own.    Footnote: I think we’ve all seen with the spread of coronavirus that our lives can change faster than we ever could have imagined. While much of that change has been difficult and painful - know that our lives can also change quickly in the opposite direction.    Know that there is light at the end of this tunnel. Maybe you’re even feeling it now?    This won’t last forever - and we still have so much to be grateful for. Do your best to take care of yourself right now. I truly believe this is an opportunity for us like no other.   To follow my journey and see more of how I’m getting through lockdown, come on over and follow me on Insta as isiahmckimmie.sexologist. I love hearing from my podcast listers over there!   Stay safe and take excellent care of you! 

How many times have you thought ‘he’s driving me crazy’ or ‘she’s driving me crazy’ this week? Living with your partner isn’t easy at the best of times. Silly arguments often stem from minor things like leaving washing up in the sink or forgetting to put the toilet seat down. But usually, these aren’t the end of the world. However, when you’re stuck inside all day with your partner, having more interactions than usual, even the smallest thing can send you over the edge. That, on top of financial pressure, uncertainty, disruption of routine, trying to homeschool kids and a change in roles can make everything feel like one giant shit show at the moment.  If you are struggling with your partner right now, I want you to know you’re not alone - many of my clients are experiencing heightened tensions - and I’m getting a LOT of people reach out to me to ask for help. This is going to be make or break time for many relationships. I want this to be a “make it” time for you. A time that brings you even closer and shows you just how much you mean to each other. Today I’m sharing with you some practical tips to help you navigate this rollercoaster of a time, like: Set boundaries on your time and attention Do your best to manage the kids together Try to keep structure and routine Be mindful of your own emotions + how you communicate Aim for empathy + understanding Continue to have ‘couple time’ together Reach out for other support Understand that your sex life might be affected Stay safe and take excellent care of yourselves and each other! We are all going to come out of this stronger than we ever thought possible.

Orgasms are great for everyone involved! They reduce stress, keep your skin healthy, improve circulation... oh and they feel amazing! Some orgasms are explosive, others a light tingling sensation. But there’s one orgasm that’s got everyone talking: The G-spot orgasm. It’s likely at some point you would have heard about the G-spot, mainly because of all the speculation about whether it actually exists but one thing is for sure, once you’ll find it, you’ll never look back!  In this episode, I’ll be sharing: What exactly the G-spot is - and whether or not everyone has one How you find the G-spot  My personal tips on experiencing G-spot pleasure, and How to experience the magic of a G-spot orgasm!  Whether you’re the owner of a G-spot or you love someone who is - this episode is going to change your life, my love!  Resources Click HERE and HERE for details of the two vibrators I mention (available from www.Blissfor Women.com).

It's no secret that I believe in the power of Tantra to help us change our lives and have incredible intimacy. Tantra has been my personal spiritual practice for over 10 years and I've used it to help transform the lives of thousands of people I've worked with. One of the most powerful teachings of Tantra for me, has been the incredible feelings of love it's helped me open to - and the intimacy I see it create between couples. First and foremost though, Tantra helps us connect more deeply to ourselves - so that we can connect more deeply with a partner. In this episode I'm diving deep into how Tantra can help us deepen intimacy and facilitate our own growth and self-awareness. Joining me is fellow Sexologist and Tantra Teacher, Waratah Kerlue. Waratah works with men, women and couples to inspire greater fulfilment within intimacy, sex, love and life. She's a Sexologist, Intimacy Consultant and Couples Therapist, highly skilled in helping you to achieve contentment, fulfilment and empowerment within sexuality and intimacy. Waratah takes a holistic approach to her work which is grounded in 20 years of mindfulness training, science-based advice and powerful practical tools. She's funny, wise and incredibly compassionate in her approach. Listen in as Waratah and I discuss: The importance of starting with connection to ourselves The questions you need to ask on a first date to discover if someone is right for you Practical steps to discovering what you enjoy sexually The power of giving ourselves permission to ask for what we want in bed - and why that can actually be incredibly sexy How to talk to your partner about improving your relationship and sex life I also open up about a recent experiment I did on another podcast and  Waratah and I share our favourite Tantra practices that you can try with a partner tonight. For more about Waratah check out her website or follow her on facebook @lovelifehealingtherapies.

One of the most common questions that I get asked as a Tantra teacher and sexologist is: "How can I increase my sexual desire"? It might be that you’ve felt a steady decrease in desire, your partner has a higher sexual drive than you - or that your partner initiates sex at a time when you’re not really in the mood. You might concentrating on something important, in the middle of cooking dinner or just at a point in your cycle where you’re not really feeling it. I get it. I’ve been there too. But there’s something powerful - and empowering about being able to connect to our sexual energy and cultivate it at will. Sexual energy is life force energy. When we’re connected to it, we feel more energised and alive. We can engage more intimately with a partner and enjoy ourselves more sexually. Today I want to share 5 of my favourite Tantra tools for igniting desire - even when you think you’re not in the mood or when you're caught off guard! And, if after listening to this podcast, you want to learn more about Tantra and how it can help you create Wild Confidence, Loving Intimacy + Epic Pleasure, I invite you to join my latest online masterclass for women, Tantric Goddess.

Hands up who ACTUALLY does their KEGELS? I think that pelvic floor exercises like kegels are one of those things that as women, we all know we 'should' be doing… But we might not be.  Or, like a lot of women who get in touch with me, you might be doing them, but be unsure if you’re doing it right.  I have my own perspectives on pelvic floor exercises, as thankfully, they’ve always been part of my Tantra practice. In Tantra, we use pelvic floor exercises to help us BALANCE our lower chakras, CONNECT to and cultivate sexual energy and increase our PLEASURE during sex.   But, I wanted to get the low-down from someone who’s studied from a western perspective in this area too.  In this episode of Wholehearted, I’m talking to women’s Pelvic Floor physiotherapist, Anna Scammell, from The Whole Mother. In this episode, you’ll hear: Exactly how we should be doing our kegel exercises according to an expert How we can tell if we’re doing them right or not The different ways we should take care of our pelvic floor before, during and after pregnancy - and why this matters even if we’re not planning on having kids.  And you’ll also get Anna’s perspective on Vaginal eggs AND being able to weight lift coconuts!    LISTEN to the full episode THEN pass it onto your girlfriends, 'cause they need to hear this too!

The very first time I walked into a Tantra workshop, I don’t think I was nervous. I don’t think I knew enough about Tantra to be nervous! I really didn’t know what Tantra was. I knew that it was spiritual - and that it had something to do with sex… but that was about it!  I would later learn that Tantra is a spiritual practice and a form of yoga and meditation.  Tantra totally changed my life and, in my journey to learn more about it, I ended up teaching.  Tantra is still part of what I do. Sometimes I share Tantra, but don’t necessarily call it Tantra. I use it with my clients at times to help couples stop arguments or to reconnect in the bedroom again. It can help women learn to orgasm for the first time, help stop sex being painful or help women feel more confident in their sexuality. When I mention Tantra to people - I get a whole lot of mixed responses.  Some people are excited and want to know more.  Some say ‘Oh Tantra - right, I’ve heard that Sting does Tantra and he has sex for 9 hours’.  I even once had a client say - ‘Omg, Tantra? Isn’t that group sex?’  So, if you’ve heard me mention Tantra and aren’t sure what it is - don’t worry. In this episode I’m going to share: What exactly Tantra is (and clear up some of the myths and misconceptions around it) 6 ways Tantra can help you have mind-blowing sex How Tantra can help you have a more loving, connected, harmonious relationship And how you can use Tantra in your own life, right away. I look forward to sharing this with you. If you'd like to learn even more about Tantra, why not sign up for my next online Tantra workshop?

Our culture gives us a lot of screwed up messages around gender, intimacy and sex. I often focus on how these messages and our lack of education impact women and their relationship to their bodies and sex, but these messages affect men too - just in different ways.  I was super excited to explore this from a man’s perspective by interviewing Cam Fraser for this episode of Wholehearted.  Cam Fraser, or THE Cam Fraser as he’s known on Instagram is a Certified Professional Sex Coach, Certified Sexologist, Registered Counsellor, and Registered Tantric Yoga Teacher. His work integrates scientifically validated, medically accurate information about sexual health, with sacred sexuality teachings from the mystery traditions.  As a coach, he helps men go beyond surface-level sex and into full-bodied, self-expressed, pleasure-oriented sexual experiences free of anxiety or shame.  In this episode Cam and I discuss: What Cam wishes women really understood about men and sex Why men need to engage with our cultural conditioning around masculinity for deeper sexual pleasure and fulfilling relationships How you can get a man to open up more emotionally How to start a conversation with your partner about learning Tantra and improving your sex life or letting him know if you want more foreplay. I absolutely loved this conversation with Cam and I know you will too.  LISTEN in then pass it on to the MEN you love - they deserve to hear this too!

Have you ever found that you can’t stop THINKING during sex? Many women struggle to ‘switch off’ and enjoy themselves when they’re making love.

It stops you enjoying yourself and gets in the way of intimacy. Today you’ll hear 5 practical tools that you can use TODAY to get out of your head and into your body in bed.

Feel like you might have dated, or be dating, a narcissist? Or have you heard the term being used a LOT lately and wonder what it’s all about? If you’ve ever encountered someone who appears grandiose, has an excessive need for praise, talks about themselves and their achievements a lot, but is also easily offended, there’s a good chance you’ve at least encountered a narcissist. “Soul-destroying”, Emotionally abusive”, “Rollercoaster”, “Feel like you’re losing your mind”, “Walking on eggshells”… were just some of the words that you guys shared with me when I asked about your experiences dating narcissists. Being in a relationship with a narcissist can be painful and damaging. We often don’t recognise the signs that we’re dating one until it’s too late. In this episode, I’m sharing: The signs that someone is a narcissist The kind of person who will be most attracted to narcissists What you can do if find yourself in a relationship with a narcissist I’ll answer the question of whether you can ever have a happy relationship with a narcissist And I’ll share the telltale signs that show up early in dating a narcissist Click HERE to access my blog and download the Signs You're Dating a Narcissist checklist.

We each give and receive love in different ways. We often give love in the way we’d like to receive it - which is beautiful - but sometimes, that isn’t the way our partner gives love or feels most loved. So what happens when we’re giving love in a way it isn’t understood? Sometimes, two people can each be trying to give love to each other - but can both end up feeling unloved because they’re speaking two different love languages. You might even feel really frustrated, because you’re trying to do so much to show your partner that you love them, but for some reason, they still feel unloved! Understanding the 5 Love Language, helps you understand and navigate these differences. Understanding the different Love Languages has been so helpful for many couples that I work with. Many of them have found it pivotal in their relationship. Instead of feeling unloved and uncared for, I’ve seen people suddenly realise their partner has been trying to show love for them all along. I’ve seen couples stop arguing about what they’re not doing for each other and finally understand each other’s needs better. In this episode we’re going to cover: What are the 5 Love Languages? And how do you find yours? How can you show love to someone with each different Love Language? What should you do when you think your partner has a different Love Language to you? And how can you talk to your partner about your Love Language? If you’re still unsure of your Love Language after listening to the episode, take the quiz here.

What do you do when your relationship gets a bit stale? How can you bring the fun back when everything has become… routine? That’s what my guest today found herself asking just a short time into her relationship.

Danielle is passionate about helping purpose driven women create extraordinary lives by inspiring confidence and self-worth in them so they can make empowered decisions about their careers, their relationships and their lives.

Relationships are learned behaviours. We often expect ourselves just to know what to do and get it right, but really, they’re skills that we learn. What is normal, how to communicate, how to express your emotions to someone, whether to express your emotions at all, what kind of intimacy or affection to display are all things that we learn from our environment. We learn these from our early caregivers, our family growing up, what we witness in the media, our wider culture and our past relationships. Even those of you who did everything you could not to turn into your parents will still have learned about relationships from them!  And you will have some patterns or traits that have carried through, because that’s just the way it works. Our early relationships and even our past relationships have such a strong effect on us that they literally effect the way our brains are wired. And then those impact the rest of our relationships going forward. This wiring impacts how we show up in our relationships, how we communicate, react, deal with emotions and even our predisposition to conditions like anxiety and depression. These past relationships and the ways our brains become wired, help shape what has become known in therapy as attachment style. On today’s episode, you’re going to hear: How to work out which attachment style you have - and what your partner’s is Which attachment styles go together well - and which tend to have the most conflict Why most dating advice you hear is actually wrong - and how your attachment style explains what’s really going on instead. How you can adjust your attachment style for more harmonious relationships.

You guys know me. I’m a little bit woo-woo, BUT I’m also passionate about sharing proven advice and practical tools with you. In today's episode, you’re going to get a lot of practical tools with just a little bit of woo to help you really embrace and step into your power as a sexual woman.  I’m talking to Sarah Marie Liddle about Erotic Identity Archetypes. Some of you will remember Sarah from our episode All About Pleasure.  Sarah Marie Liddle is a writer, identity alchemist, teacher and pleasure advocate. Her work includes private sessions, online programs, and books.  I know that as you listen to us discuss each of the 5 erotic archetypes you’re going to recognise yourself, your strengths and you'll love the practical tools that will help you grow from where you are right now.    This Episode comes with a huge thank you to Bliss for Women.  Bliss for Women provide a unique shopping experience that erases the taboo of shopping in an adult store.

For a long time, I didn’t know what I wanted sexually. I had very little idea of what turned me on. I had some ideas… things I’d heard about that I wanted to try but I was far too shy to ask for it! It was only after I began practicing Tantra and I felt like I was given permission to enjoy myself and express myself sexually that I started to feel okay with accepting pleasure and my sexual desires. What I enjoy sexually has changed over time - it continues to change actually! I go through phases of really enjoying something and then kind of moving on a bit. Often it’s really dependent on my mood too! I think one of the reasons I love helping women become sexually empowered so much is because I’m so aware of the whole range of possibilities there are for pleasure!  There’s a really common set of questions and statements I hear from women when we’re discussing feeling sexually empowered, confident and being well-pleasured. They go like this: How do I tell my partner what I like? I’m not even sure I know what I like. How do you find this out?  What do other women like?   I also hear women’s partners say things like: I wish I knew what she *really enjoys sexually. I try to ask her, but she says she doesn’t know. I just really want to know how to please her.   In this episode of Wholehearted Love, Sex + Intimacy, I’m sharing advice and practical tips to help you discover epic pleasure. You’ll hear: The vital factors of a woman’s turn-on that you need to understand My 4 step formula to discover what you really enjoy Playful ways to explore what you enjoy with a partner - no awkward conversations involved Sexy suggestions from other women on what turns them on    This episode comes with a huge thank you to Bliss for Women….

What should you do if your man has sexual challenges, can’t ‘get it up’ or isn’t interested in sex? I’m sharing my personal experience with you. Some of you will know that one of the experiences that led me to working in the field of sexuality, intimacy and relationships, was my time working as a Sexual Surrogate. In this role, I worked intimately and practically with men experiencing sexual dysfunction such as low libido, premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. It was an incredible opportunity to see just how deeply sexuality impacts us as human beings, but also the professional possibilities for helping people. I struggle to put into words how profound, insightful and rewarding that work was for me. Although I mostly work with women and couples now, it's still something close to my heart.  I receive a LOT of questions from women now on how to support their men with sexual challenges including low desire, ED and PE.  55% of men will have experienced a sexual dysfunction within the last 12 months. (Which means a significant portion of women will encounter these issues also.) Our culture places high expectations on men to be sexually proficient and capable at all times. When men experience sexual challenges of any kind, they often report it bringing into question their sense of worth and their masculinity. They often express feeling: Shame/embarrassment Frustration/anger Disappointment in themselves Hopelessness/despair Our culture also places an expectation on women to feel desired and sought-after.  When a woman’s partner is experiencing sexual challenges, it can sometimes lead her to question her own desirability (even though this usually has little to do with what’s going on!) Women often experience a range of thoughts and emotions when their partner experiences sexual challenges, such as: Feeling like they don’t know what to do to help Wanting to ignore the problem so they don’t embarrass their partner Frustration Rejection Helplessness Questioning their own attractiveness How a partner responds to a sexual dysfunction can make a big difference to what happens going forward.  For some men, the negative reaction of a partner increases their anxiety about it happening again - almost guaranteeing it does. But there are helpful ways a partner can respond and there are steps a man can take to overcome these sexual challenges. In this episode of Wholehearted Love, Sex + Intimacy, you’ll hear: The 4 most common sexual challenges men experience The client who though he had premature ejaculation, but was actually experiencing something very different How men’s partners can respond in a way that’s supportive and can help a man recover faster The underlying causes of each sexual dysfunction Practical steps you need to take to fix them   Like any sexual challenge, these issues aren’t something you need to deal with alone. If you’re ready to move forward to more satisfying, loving sex, book a call with Isiah.

It’s no secret the dating game has changed pretty drastically over the last decade. Most of us are familiar with (or perhaps a little too familiar with) online dating and swiping apps. It feels like norms and expectations are changing. Fast. Especially for people who might suddenly find themselves back in the dating pool after a long break. And let’s be honest, dating was always complicated enough anyway. In this episode of Wholehearted Love, Sex + Intimacy, I’m joined by my co-host Bec, where we talk about getting back to dating, what to consider following the emergence of the online dating culture and important questions like: Is it okay to lie about your age on your profile? Is making a list of what you want in a partner really helpful? What can you do to stay safe when dating? What are the dating red flags that should have you running? Is someone being super into you actually a bad thing? Join us as we dive into dating!

My love, Breaking up is never easy. We experience all kinds of emotions – grief, anger, sadness, guilt, shame.  We sometimes begin to doubt ourselves and question our abilities. Perhaps wondering if we’re truly lovable. Or if we are capable of the kind of loving, satisfying, long-term relationship that we want. I know I experienced all of these responses.  Especially after I’d become a therapist, I felt that perhaps I’d failed for having my relationship end. Of course, that’s not how it works. No relationship is ever a ‘failure’, they’re all an opportunity for us to learn and grow. I’ve also agonised over whether I was making the right decision. Last week, we shared the questions you need to ask yourself before you decide to break up with someone. If you’re still in the process of deciding whether breaking up is the right thing for you, I highly recommend you listen to this episode. We wanted to follow on this week with how you nurture, love and support yourself if that’s what ends up happening. If you’re going through a break up right now, or have recently been through one, we want you to know, we see you and we feel you.  We’ve been there too. And we know it’s one of the most painful journeys you can go through. It doesn’t matter how long you were with someone, sometimes break up affects us deeply. In this episode, Bec and I share our own personal stories and the things that we know can get you through. You’ll hear: The 3 things that got me through the hardest break up of my life Why the pain you might feel isn’t just in your head How long it ‘should’ take you to recover The vital role forgiveness plays in moving forward How to tell when it’s the right time to start dating again Trust us when we say that something even more perfect for you is ahead. You deserve great love. And remember, that it’s okay to get support too. If you need someone to talk to about your break up, reach out to me here. Sending love to your precious heart, Isiah. x x

It took me months to decide to leave my last relationship. There was so much good in it. For a long time, I had thought I would spend the rest of my life with him.  I’d spent many phone calls with girlfriends discussing the situation, sessions with my therapist becoming clear and many attempts at conversation with my partner. But clearly, there were things that weren’t working.  I thought if perhaps I tried harder… Or asked for what I needed in a different way… Or maybe if I just came to terms with him not being ‘perfect’… it might work. But eventually I had to make the decision I’d known in my guts for months. Our relationship was never going to be what I wanted it to be. And there were things missing that I couldn’t do without.  It still wasn’t easy. If you’ve ever been sitting on the fence of leaving a relationship, you’ll know what I’m talking about. No one gets into a relationship wanting it to end. You invest so much, you wonder if you should just stay. And then there’s other things… Shame, not wanting to tell people it’s over, the hope that if you just try a little bit harder… and the practical things like the house, finances, the kids. Last week Bec and I shared the 4 things that determine with 90% accuracy whether a relationship will succeed or fail and the 6 behaviours a happy, healthy relationship needs to survive. So when the positive signs are missing… but the negatives are there in spades… How do you tell when it’s time to call it a day?  It’s a major myth that couples come to couples therapy to work on their relationship. Many couples I begin working with in therapy don’t know whether they want to stay together when they first come to see me. I help them through the process of determining whether they want to try to overcome the challenges and distance they’re facing. In this episode, I’m sharing the questions and suggestions that I share with my clients who are making this decision… And the hard questions that we’ve had to ask ourselves too. If you’re in the process of making this decision at the moment, our hearts are with you. We know it’s tough. Should you make this decision, tune in again for next week’s episode, when we'll be talking about how you recover and begin to move forward with your life again. Love & Light, Isiah & Bec

I have to be honest… I feel a bit embarrassed about the degree to which I totally nerded out in this week’s podcast. We wanted to bring you an episode sharing relationship tips that were totally grounded in facts and some of the best relationship research we have available. It’s based on over 40 years of research by therapists who studied couples in a ‘love lab’. This research forms a large basis of my work with couples. It can predict with 90% accuracy which relationships will fail and which will succeed - without making changes or getting support through therapy. But, I might have gone a bit far. I’m not quite sure my co-host, Bec knew how to respond! Not only will you get the facts and statistics, you’ll also get proven, practical strategies for avoiding these mistakes and learn what to do instead so you can have a rocking, thriving, lasting relationship. In this episode of Wholehearted Love, S-x + Intimacy, you’ll discover: Which 4 communication strategies determine with 90% accuracy whether a relationship will succeed or fail This 1 thing that men do that means their relationship has an 81% chance of self-destructing What small trick happy couples do 86% of the time and couples destined for break-up do only 33% of the time 6 behaviours happy, healthy relationships need to survive We need skills and love for our relationships to thrive. I quite honestly believe they need to teach this stuff in schools. It can make such a powerful difference to our lives.  

This is our most personal episode so far… We get raw, we get open…we get vulnerable. If you’ve been hurt in a past relationship If you have difficulty trusting If you know you struggle to open up Or if you want closer connections in your life… Know that you’re not alone. This episode is for you. Brene Brown’s research has shown that vulnerability is the glue that holds relationships together. But we completely understand that being vulnerable is hard, REALLY hard. We’ve had a long journey to being vulnerable too and we still need to remind ourselves to practice vulnerability, to allow our walls to come down and our hearts to open. We don’t always get it right. Being vulnerable opens you up to pain, but it also opens you up to greater joy, to greater love and more meaningful relationships. We quite simply can’t have intimacy without vulnerability. So how do you tear down your walls and let more love in? Join us for this intimate conversation as we share: What led us to want to protect ourselves (and you’ll hear us both cry as we do) The moment that changed Isiah’s life and relationships What Bec’s friend said that made her realise she’s not as open and vulnerable as she thought The consequences of shutting down your vulnerability and what can be gained by embracing it. How you can take down the walls (that we all build to protect ourselves) and let more love in   Connection is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives. You are worthy of love and belonging. We hope this episode helps break down those walls you may have built up. We hope it helps you remember to always be kind to yourself, embrace your imperfections and embrace them in others. Be authentically you… it leads to deeper connections. And practice vulnerability - the irony is that is actually feels good when we’re vulnerable. The more you practice anything, the better you get. Pretty soon, you’ll be a boss of vulnerability and master of your whole-hearted life!  With deep love and gratitude, Isiah + Bec.xx   Links related to this episode: We recommend checking out Brene Brown's TedX Talk - The Power of Vulnerability.    We’d love to hear from you: How do you feel about vulnerability? Was there a moment in your life that led you to put your walls up?  

I remember the first time I kissed a woman. It’s actually not the kiss that I remember most - it’s how I felt afterwards.  Confused. Worried. Embarrassed. Excited. Because, to borrow from Katie Perry:  I kissed a girl. And I liked it. I liked it a lot, you guys. But I had always - and still do - consider myself heterosexual. So how does that work? We recently received a question from a woman who shared similar feelings about her sexual fantasies involving other women. She’s always considered herself heterosexual and only been in relationships with men, but she’s now wondering what these fantasies about women mean. So in this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, we wanted to address her concerns, which are really common. If you’ve also found yourself sexually attracted to the same sex, maybe watching lesbian porn and wondered ‘what does this mean???’ We’re answering it all; We’ll talk about: How common it is… Why it happens Why more for women than for men? Is it normal? Does it mean I’m a lesbian? How do I feel okay with these fantasies or attractions? How societal conditioning has influenced how we see these desires? I open up about my own experiences of being with women - and what it means for my own relationships. Enjoy this episode, knowing you are DEFINITELY NOT ALONE! It’s becoming a bit of a theme on the podcast, but our take home message is that we believe: Love who you love It’s time to break down the rigid labels and boxes we’ve been given Find what brings you pleasure, joy and love and give yourself permission to explore it wholeheartedly! We think this quote from Kesha sums it up perfectly: “I love people. It’s not about a gender. It’s just about the spirit that exudes from that other person you’re with.”   Have a topic you’d like us to cover? Let us know in the comments.

Am I in a Sex Rut and how do I get out of it? Can you relate to the story of so many couples that have walked through my door? Sex started out fun and exciting (and on a regular basis), but then life happened… You got busy, tired and very familiar with each other. And you’ve now found yourself feeling a little lack-lustre in the bedroom. Perhaps, like many of the couples I work with, you’ve noticed:  Sex doesn’t happen very often any more You’re tired or lacking enthusiasm when you do have it If you’re honest, it’s not very exciting When you do have sex, it tends to happen in exactly the same way each time You’d like to find ways to bring the PASSION and PLAYFULNESS back You, my friend, may be experiencing what we call a ‘sex rut’. It’s common and you’re normal. Sex ruts can even happen for happy couples and couples who once considered themselves pretty ‘adventurous’ in this area. In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, we’re talking about signs you’re in a sex rut - but most importantly, how you can get out. Helping couples rediscover fun, playfulness and lasting desire in the bedroom is something Isiah does every day (with incredible results!). We’ll be sharing 10 ways to get out of a Sex Rut and rediscover playful, loving, satisfying sex. Yes, it’s possible! We also share: The first step you must take if you want to get out of a sex rut The science of adding fun and playfulness back to your bedroom The simple step that helps you increase your chance of reaching orgasm One of Isiah’s favourite practical exercises to help you discover what you enjoy sexually (her coaching clients love this exercise!)

Is there anyone who hasn’t argued with their spouse about chores? I need to know your secret! It’s one of the top issues couples argue about and it comes up all the time in therapy. This week on Wholehearted: Love, Sex + Intimacy, I answer a question from a woman who says her partner STILL expects so much of her around the house, even though she earns more money. I shared some helpful statistics with her that every relationship can benefit from. I also answer questions from: A husband wishing his wife wanted more foreplay A woman who thinks her new partner might be gay We all have questions about relationships and intimacy. We’ve all felt stuck and we all benefit from support sometimes.

Over the last few weeks on Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast we’ve been talking about self-love and body image, because we know what a huge impact this can have on a woman’s confidence, mental health, her relationships and intimacy. I’m really passionate about women loving and accepting ALL of themselves and because, for me, that includes ALL of their bodies as well, we are going to talk about Vulvas and Vaginas today. And this area - women’s genitals - is an area that we don’t really talk about – but they can really impact upon a woman’s confidence and pleasure. So, we’re going to go there ...   We’ll talk terminology, because it is really empowering when we know the correct names and parts of ourselves. We also talk labiaplasty and its rise in popularity. We talk to some amazing women and men and find out how they feel about Vulvas and Vaginas and I hope after listening to this episode you feel more confident, more appreciative and more in love with your Vulva and your Vagina… after all they are part of you, and you are simply magnificent and perfect as you are. In this episode: We talk to some ladies (thanks to Rebecca, Karenna, Em, Richelle, Sarah, Trudi and Nathalie for being so open and willing to share) and ask; - How do you feel about your vulva/vagina?  - Has this changed over time? - What are some of the worries/concerns you’ve had about your vulva/vagina?  We get a man’s perspective on things;  - What are men's real thoughts about going down on a lady? Do they find it gross or a turn on? - Do you care how a vulva looks, tastes and smells?  - How well do you think you know these parts of a woman's body, really? And we also get a Professional Opinion asking: - What is ‘normal’? - Do our genitals change as we age? - How does childbirth impact a woman’s vagina? - What do you want women to know about their genitals?   Want more?

For decades I hated my body and struggled with self confidence. You might not know this about me, but I have a skin disease called Vitiligo. It leaves big white patches on my skin – all over my arms, legs and body. For most of my life, I never thought of myself as beautiful. I felt like the ugly duckling and wondered how anyone would ever truly love or be attracted to me. It impacted my confidence, my relationships - and intimacy. Because, let’s face it - self love is the foundation of ALL our other relationships.  *** I believe that every woman deserves to feel comfortable, confident and sexy in her own skin. And I believe it is possible for every woman - regardless of our size, shape, colour or age. Self-love and confidence aren’t things that we have or don’t have - they're things we can CULTIVATE.  *** In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy we get personal… Podcast Producer, Bec Dent, and I share the insights we gathered during this Self Love Series and walk you through our journeys to loving ourselves and our bodies. Every woman is on a journey to fall in love with themselves. Our goal from this episode, is to share our own stories and remind you, you are not alone.  You’re not necessarily born loving your body, or loving yourself. And your relationship with yourself can change throughout your life. But it’s not the changes that matter- it’s how you feel about yourself through them. Our aim is to remind you of how amazing you are and help you find ways to practice radical self love and remember your ‘enoughness’ in every moment… in this moment, just as you are. We hope you enjoy this episode and can learn to love yourself even more after hearing it.   Want more?

Have a mindset shift… that you are ALREADY Spend time with people that lift you up and that model the changes you want to make in yourself. Have a social media clear out or detox; look at the accounts you see the most...and just ask yourself ‘do I feel good?’ And if it doesn’t – lovingly get rid (unfollow). And follow positive pages/ people that make you feel good/positive and show up as the kind of person that you want to show up as. Gratitude Journal and/ or daily forgiveness practice. Practice ‘Bliss-ipline’- do things daily that actually make you feel good. Give yourself 15 minutes a day (at least) to practice self-love. You inspire people in the process. Give yourself permission and let yourself celebrate the things you are good at – you give other people permission to do the same!   If you are a new listener to Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, we would love to hear from you.

In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, I asked one of my team members, Bec Dent, to ask the burning questions the average person has around open relationships and how to navigate them.  Our guests, Richelle and Jeremy are relationship experts, but have been in numerous open relationships themselves. They offer a very candid insight into their transition into open relationships. They explain how they first knew this was the type of alternative relationship they would like to pursue and they share the pleasure and pitfalls of this choice. We also get their top tips for making an open relationship work well and ask: How do you take care of everyone’s needs in this kind of relationship? How do you keep emotion separate? Can it really be JUST sex? What is ethical non-monogamy? How were your relationships affected by introducing other people into them? Listen in and enjoy!

In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, Kate Toon joins me to dive into the art of talking dirty with your partner. When Kate reached out to me and said she gave 'great pod' - and had worked on a sex chat line, I knew I had to have her on the show. Talking about sex and what we want can feel uncomfortable and just downright weird when we’re not used to it. This podcast episode aims to empower you with some tips to get the sexy conversation started with your partner without it feeling forced or unnatural. We all have the ability to ‘talk sexy’, you just need to find what works for you and ultimately your relationship. In this episode, we discuss:  - Kate Toon’s experience working on a phone sex line. - Something I talk a lot about on this show and in my work are the ways women hold themselves back during sex. We are given so many cultural messages that it’s not okay to be a woman who enjoys or feels comfortable with sex. And we’re not taught how to do it. This episode offers advice on how to become more comfortable with sex. - Kate’s a copywriter and therefore master of words with some great tips or talking dirty and words that work/ don’t work to get you in the mood. HOT TIP: it doesn’t need to sound unnatural or over-the-top to be sexy. - Sexting is also something women ask me about a lot!

Kate and I discuss some great sexting tips. - How ‘good sexual communication helps improve our sexual satisfaction.’ Learn to: Ask for what we want / don’t want in the bedroom Share appreciation or tell your partner what you like. - Getting out of the ‘functional sex’ rut – how can you reignite the flame after having kids / being in a long term relationship? - Kate’s experience at a Fellatio workshop. Learn how to making fellatio work for you and your partner. - Shift your mindset of fellatio ‘as a gift for him or a reward or chore’ to ‘learn how to get pleasure out of doing it for yourself.’ - We’ve grown up in a society where we’re not given the skills or the right attitude towards sex. How can we move past that for ourselves and a healthier relationship?   Follow our Podcast Follow our Host - Isiah McKimmie - Couples Therapist + Sexologist Join our Group and the conversation - Wholehearted: Love , Sex + Intimacy   Explore these Resources In this episode, we mentioned the following resources: Tips for talking dirty with your Partner : It doesn’t need to sound unnatural or over-the-top. Good sexual communication helps improve our sexual satisfaction – learn to: Ask for what we want/ don’t want Share appreciation or tell your partner what you like. An easy place to start is giving compliments to your partner. Positive feedback i.e. How much you’re enjoying it and how they make you feel, how great they look etc. Even start after sex, because it’s harder in the moment. Remember: to tell your partner what you enjoyed NOT what you didn’t enjoy. Start by sending messages, because it’s less confronting and gives you more time to think. Read for inspiration - discover what you like. How? ‘Do a bit of googling and find some ‘sexy articles/ tips’ i.e ‘5 new sex positions to try’ and send those articles to your partner. There’s a lot of good content out there that you can share. If you don’t have the words yourself- use someone else’s’ –Kate Toon's! Do your research- read a sexy novel- choose the parts that turn you on and put it in a text message to your partner. Or tell them this is something you want to try. Send a voicemail to your partner. It gets unsexy when you get analytical about it.   Some tips to help you in the sexting department from Kate Toon https://www.katetooncopywriter.com.au/how-to-write-sexy-copy-six-sensual-tips/   1:  Use unexpected and sensual words to describe everyday objects.  'How about the gentle curve of the bath tap, or the soft undulating feel of that doona?'   2:  Appeal to the senses ‘Describe the touch, smell and even taste. Sound can also be useful.’   3:  Don’t overdo it ‘I have a three adjective rule, which means I never use more than three in a row.’   4:  Avoid the Mills & Boon effect ‘choosing the right sexy words can be tough…’ ‘Here’s some help in choosing the right ones:’   Phrases we loved   Phrases we hated   ‘Copy that tries too hard to be sexy just causes a snigger rather than an emotional or sensual response. So if in doubt, don’t.’   Check out more about Kate at her website: https://www.katetoon.com   If you are a new listener to Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, we would love to hear from you.  Please visit our Contact Page and let us know how we can help you today!  

Sarah Marie Liddle has been a Pleasure Coach for over a decade and today I’m speaking with her not only about sexual pleasure but being open to all of life's pleasures. Pleasure can seem quite selfish– but Sarah Marie suggests we re-frame our beliefs around that – and by letting go of our association with “guilty pleasures” we allow ourselves to take pleasure in its entirety. We live in such a fast paced world now but by slowing down, being present and mindful, living with intention and attention your energy changes - you see things, feel things, experience things differently. When we can learn to let go of the ego and can step fully into ourselves, our relationship with the world changes – - we show up differently - life flows - we experience things from a place of love, and - we give the best version of ourselves – in life and in the bedroom. We discuss the steps we can take Let’s have fun and explore … all about pleasure.   Sarah Marie Liddle, Pleasure Coach & Host of the Pleasure Rising Podcast is an Aussie-Kiwi obsessed with pleasure – a former lawyer turned pleasure coach. She shows you how to bring pleasure back into your life, relationships & business. Sarah has written for Thought Catalogue, Huffington Post, Elephant Journal, YFS Magazine and more. Learn more on Sarah Marie's website or follow her on Insta.

In today’s episode I’m speaking with fellow sexologist, Lauren White. And we’re talking about something near and dear to both our hearts - women giving themselves permission to be sexual as they are - rather than trying to be something that they're not. Lauren recently published her first book, Permission, that speaks to this topic. She’s here to lift the veil on what sex can be, other than just what we see in the media, in movies or on television. She’s a big advocate of vanilla as her favourite flavour and encourages us all to own what it is we like - rather than striving for something we're not and feeling that we are falling short in sex and intimacy. She questions what would happen if we could drop all of the pressure, expectation and judgment. Just turn up in sex as we are and see what happens! Drop all pretence, be in the moment and see what beautiful things can happen – like feeling open, luscious and orgasmic! We talk about: what to do when you’re not in the mood how to build connection with a partner what to consider before experimenting sexually the roles we take on in life and sexually the importance of a reset button And one quote I love from Lauren “There is liberation in being satisfied with connected, loving sex that is pleasurable.  I love vanilla!”  Nothing wrong with vanilla!  Let’s take a listen …   LAUREN WHITE is a qualified sexologist, but also describes herself as a "devoted mama, balanced Libran and lounge room dancer extraordinaire". She assists her many satisfied clients to drop the anxiety and reinvigorate their sexual power in their intimate lives. Through her one-on-one sessions, writing and events, she helps women to release their physical and psychological blocks so that they can liberate their libidos for intimacy, sex and life.

The 7 different kinds of Orgasms women can have!!  I like to think of all these different kinds of orgasms as just different ‘flavours of pleasure’.

Hey loves - and welcome back to Orgasm week! My new online course for women - Epic Orgasms is being released next week, so to celebrate, I’m sharing a whole week of shows on the female orgasm. If you’ve missed the first few episodes so far, make sure you go back and tune in. I’m answering more questions from my community today. Can every woman reach orgasm? What should I do if I can’t? Sex absolutely doesn’t need to end in orgasm for it to be enjoyable, fulfilling and satisfying but if you want to reach orgasm and can’t, it can be incredibly frustrating. Fact is, 30% of women struggle to reach orgasm on a regular basis and 1 in 10 of us have never had an orgasm at all.  And, if you’re one of the 10% of sexually active women who have never had an orgasm, you might be wondering if it’s even possible for you to have an orgasm?  It’s a good question. The good news is that the vast majority of women can learn to orgasm when they have the right information and support. Think of it as a skill you just haven’t been taught yet. In this episode I talk about the many reasons women may have difficulty reaching orgasm and I share with you the 6 steps you can take to learn to have an orgasm for the first time.   My latest e-book EPIC ORGASMS: Everything you need to know about the female orgasm will be available later today!  In it I share more tips, practical exercises and Tantric secrets to help you have epic orgasms.

Welcome back to Orgasm Week! My new online course for women - Epic Orgasms is being released next week, so to celebrate, I’m going to be sharing a whole week of shows on the female orgasm. If you’ve missed the first two episodes so far, make sure you go back and listen in. Today, I’m answering another question sent in to me by a woman in my Facebook group. She wrote: “I am interested in why it’s easier to orgasm alone? There have been times when I’ve been with a partner and they have said “Wow you take ages to orgasm”, and I’ve said “Yep” - but if I did it myself it could be over in three minutes. It can seem like they are doing exactly the same thing but it feels more harsh when they do it. Why is it easier to orgasm alone than with a partner?” I know this can be really frustrating. We think that orgasms should just happen - easily, often and loudly. And the especially should happen through penis in vagina intercourse - preferably at the same time. But honestly, this just isn’t the case for many women. The truth is 30% of women struggle to orgasm through partner sex. You can wonder if your partner isn’t doing something right. You can feel embarrassed or like there’s something wrong with you.  You can worry about hurting your partner’s feelings. You partner may also feel confused, inadequate or frustrated. And together, you might even give up trying. It’s really important to keep in mind that it’s not your fault - and it’s not your partner’s fault either.  You can both let go of any guilt, shame or blame right now.  In this episode we look at the many reasons why women can struggle to orgasm with a partner and delve into 4 steps to help you do it: Work on having an orgasm by yourself Work out the kind of stimulation that feels really good to you Learn to communicate that to your partner Explore and have fun Go to my website to join the waitlist for your copy of my e-book EPIC ORGASMS: Everything you need to know about the female orgasm. In it I share more tips, practical exercises and Tantric secrets to help you have epic orgasms.  It’s totally free for a limited time only. 

Welcome to what I’m calling Orgasm Week! My new online course for women - Epic Orgasms is being released next week, so to celebrate, I’m going to be sharing a whole week of shows on the female orgasm. Today I’m answering a listener’s question: Will I always know if I’ve had an orgasm? How can I tell if I’ve had an orgasm? So often, I hear that women have been told things like ‘you’ll just know when you’ve had one’ or ‘well, if you don’t know, you haven’t had one’. The truth is, that’s not always true. I share the scientific definition of an orgasm … then add some feeling to that! We often have these huge expectations on orgasm now.  You know that scene from ‘When Harry met Sally’?  I can tell you that my orgasms don’t always look like that - and many women’s don’t. Orgasms can be different sizes and intensities. Sometimes, they are huge, whole-body, toe-curling experiences, and sometimes, they’re small, silent, little releases.  Remember, what an orgasm feels like will be different for every woman - and will be different on different days. And, if you still think you’ve never had an orgasm - or can orgasm by yourself, but not with a partner, stay tuned to the next couple of shows. I’ll be talking about how you can have your first orgasm, have reliable orgasms with a partner and orgasm more frequently.   FYI, I’m sharing more tips, practical exercises and Tantric secrets to help you have epic orgasms in my latest e-book - Epic Orgasms.

Have you heard of the Orgasm Gap? The orgasm gap is a scientifically documented gap in the rates that men and heterosexual women achieve orgasm during sexual encounters together. Men are twice as likely to have an orgasm in heterosexual sexual encounters than women. I don’t think sex needs to end in orgasm for it to be enjoyable, satisfying and loving, BUT, disparity in arousal and lack of sexual enjoyment can impact our confidence, sexual desire and our relationships. In this episode, I talk about what the orgasm gap is, what causes men to be more likely to have an orgasm and what we can do to close the gap. Getting out of our heads and into our body Deciding that your pleasure is important Empowering yourself by choosing empowering sexual beliefs Educating yourself Learning to ask for what you want in bed. With my new e-book, Epic Orgasms, coming out later this week we’re go to make this Orgasm Week on the podcast. In just a couple of days I’ll be sharing an episode with 7 Ways to Increase Your Chance of Reaching Orgasm tonight, where I’m going to share really specific tips on how to reach orgasm. Make sure you stayed tuned to O week to hear it. And why not head to my website NOW and join the waitlist for your free copy of EPIC ORGASMS: Everything you need to know about the female orgasm.

Today I’m talking about Gas Lighting. It’s something I’ve been seeing too much of in my world at the moment. I’m seeing it in my personal life - amongst my friends, in my clients - and on a much larger scale in world politics at the moment too.  And - I just can’t stay quiet about it anymore! Gas lighting is a form of manipulation and control that can occur in relationships causing the victim to question their own feelings, instincts and sanity. It is emotional and psychological abuse. In gas lighting, the abuser sees the victim as an object, a possession, something to control - although they might not necessary be aware that’s what they’re doing.  And it doesn’t just happen in intimate partner relationships – it can happen in the work place by bosses, it can happen from friends and unfortunately from other family members like parents.  In this episode I’ll be sharing What gas lighting might look like and the signs to look out for that you’re being gas lit - What to do if you’re in a relationship with someone who is gas lighting you, and - How to avoid this form of manipulation and control. We’ve been talking about this in my Facebook group, Wholehearted Love, Sex and Intimacy - which is for women only - and I’d love you to come and join the discussion and share your experiences with this. We all want love - we want to believe the person we love and know that we can trust them. We all deserve a healthy, stable, loving and respectful relationship. And you need to know that it IS possible. If this is happening to you and you’re ready to move on to a healthier, more loving relationship, this is something that I support people with, so please visit the coaching page of my website and book a 20 minute call with me so we can find out if we’re a good fit for working together.

Do you feel like men and women just communicate differently? Have you ever wanted to understand how the other sex thinks? I know you’re going to love this episode, where I take a deep dive with "the relationship guy”, Gideon Hanekom. When I announced to my Facebook community that I was going to be chatting to a male relationship expert for insights into how men and women communicate, I was flooded with questions. Questions like: How do I talk to a man about emotions? How do I get him to open up when he’s in shut down? Why is sex so important to a relationship? And - we keep fighting over chores - how can I get my partner to do more housework? We’re answering all of these questions and more. We’ll cover the key needs men and women have in a relationship + the one emotion men are always trying to avoid. We talk about the differences that happen in men and women’s bodies when we try to communicate + how you can effectively understand each other. We also talk about the role of sex in vulnerability and intimacy.

Those of you who know me know how I feel about this! I’m all about us being empowered in our sexuality - and having it be as enjoyable as possible. We deserve to feel pleasure. We deserve to fully enjoy sex. And making sure we do that is our responsibility. There is so much to be said for us discovering what it is that we enjoy. None of us are born great at sex, or innately knowing what we like. We have to figure it out through exploration.  We’ve got to stop expecting a partner to just know what to do - or blaming them if we’re not enjoying what’s happening. Women say things like: I’m afraid to tell my partner that I don’t like what they’re doing. I don’t want to hurt his feelings. I just don’t know what to ask for. Sometimes I ask for something and he doesn’t do it right. I often hear women say they’re afraid to ask for what they want - I also hear men say they really wish they had more direction, because they really want to please their partner - they’re just not sure how. This sucks for women - and it sucks for men too.  Over and over I hear men tell me that they feel performance pressure. They feel like they’re expected to know what to do. And they feel out of their depth and a bit clueless.  So I'm going to share with you how and when you can start the conversation. And don't worry, with a bit of practice, this gets easier - and we tend to get more creative with practice! So give yourself permission to start. Most partners will love you being more open and expressive about your sexual wants and needs. My hope is that today’s episode helps you think differently about your pleasure and how to get more of it! I’m going to be talking about this more in my Epic Orgasms Course coming out soon. So make sure you head to my website and join the waitlist to be the first to hear when it opens.

I talked to the beautiful Aesha Kennedy of Brilliant Misfits Podcast about how I have never felt as if I fitted in (even as a child) BUT how I’ve turned that into a gift. You know I really believe that the world needs (and deserves) us to really “bring” and “share” our unique gifts and talents, not be just what others expect us to be, not to hide our light or to make ourselves smaller. When we love ourselves for who we really are and feel good about ourselves we make better choices – for ourselves, those we love and for the world around us. In life you may plan to head in one direction, but you have to trust your intuition and allow the universe to guide you. Something that Aesha said really resonated. She said “We live in a creative universe. If we can trust in that & not try to control it, it won’t lead you astray, everything is divinely perfect.”  I love that. That so much resonates for how I live my life.   Some of the highlights from our chat: - Investigating unconscious beliefs - What does an embodied practice mean? - Tips and tools to care and connect, first with yourself and with others. - Unpacking taboos around being a sexual being - embracing who you truly are   Take a listen. And I hope my story inspires you to connect with your true self and to confidently be the best version of your own “Brilliant Misfit” that you can be. Aesha Kennedy is a Certified Life Coach, a teacher and practitioner of Yoga and Mindfulness and a Visual Arts Practitioner.  Her podcast Brilliant Misfits is about women who didn’t fit in and explores how this has helped them create amazing lives and businesses by courageously following their heart and doing it their own way.

Do you ever wish you could ‘let go’ during sex and really enjoy yourself? Feel relaxed around sex? Do you want it to be fun, adventurous or more playful? Want more pleasure? In today’s episode I want to share what it is that’s helped me on my journey to becoming a sexually empowered and liberated woman.  I did not start my journey with sex feeling confident, empowered or sexually free. I was actually incredibly shy around sex. I enjoyed sex, but I felt guilty about it for a long time. And I was too embarrassed to ask for what I wanted in bed.  I would hear my friends talk about how incredible sex was - or the things that they’d tried as I felt like I was missing out. I just felt like I was holding myself back. In discovering my sexual freedom, I’ve learned to feel at home in my body. I’m more connected to my intuition. I feel more pleasure and flow in my entire life. My relationships are deeper, there’s an incredible intimacy in them now. Sex is more enjoyable than I imagined it could be. And I feel radiantly alive, sexy and confident -  on a daily basis.  So, how do we get there? Well, having coached women for over 10 years, I can tell you it’s different for all of us, but we’ll start today with: Getting out of your head + in to your body Making your pleasure a priority - in life and in the bedroom Shining a light on your inner sexual beliefs + break free Getting real sex education + pleasure education Learn to say no - so you can also say “hell yes!” Explore and practice Becoming a sexually liberated woman is a journey well worth taking. I encourage you to take the first step.  If you haven’t downloaded my e-book Liberated yet, head over to my website www.isiah-mckimmie.com and get your free copy.
